Welcome to the Community, Sarah. I'm here with some steps we can perform so you can successfully set your contactor as CIS in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
First, we need to make sure that the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) feature is turned on properly. I'd recommend making sure that you've clicked on Save and Done to ensure that the program recognizes the changes made.
If the same issue persists, let's perform these troubleshooting steps to check if this has something to do with your browser as too many cached files can cause issues.
We can start by accessing your account in a private browser. Here’s how to do the private browsing:
- Safari: Control + Option + P
- Google Chrome: Press Ctrl + Shift + N
- Firefox or Internet Explorer: Ctrl + Shift + P
If you're able to see the Is CIS contractor box, I'd suggest clearing your regular browser's cache and cookies to refresh it.
In the event it continues occurring while using incognito, you'll initially have to try switching to another browsing application. Here's a list of supported browsers:
- Google Chrome
- Mozilla Firefox
- Safari 11 or newer
